To Find Don Fernando Campa y Cos "Pasajero" document in archives
I am trying to find when Don Fernando De La Campa y Cos traveled by ship to Nuevo Espana (Mexico). I know that he shows up in the records when in 1693 he was recommended by the Alcalde of Sombrerete Antonio Guiterrez De Teran to protect Sombrerete.
Don Fernando was born in Burgos, Spain in 1676 so to show up in Sombrerete in 1693 makes him 17 years old. But so far that is the earliest he is mentioned.
He would have had to travel by ship sometime in 1693 or before.
So in the Pars website:

I do a search for "Pasajeros" then I filter by years on the left side. I get a long list of documents to choose from. Then those documents have lists of passenger names on each Navio that traveled to Nuevo Espana (Mexico).
Many of those names don't appear on a description that you can just look up in search. You have to read the list of names within the document.
El nombre de Don Fernando creo que esta enterrado en uno de esos listas y se tiene que leer lo para ver si sale.
